One of my favorite baseball facts is Connie Mack being the manager of the A's for FIFTY years. Another one is him wearing those suits. Here he is telling a pitcher how the hell to pitch 83 years ago. For people like my parents who were alive when Mack was managing, it must be weird to think it's been more than SIXTY years since he retired.

Red Sox on NESN tonight and Sunday afternoon. I'm getting excited for the season. Middlebrooks MVP, and we're gonna surprise some people. By kicking their asses.
